Bachelor in Paradise confirmed the news Monday on its official Twitter account.

"We've got two tickets to Paradise...Chris and Connor will continue their journey for love on #BachelorInParadise!" the show wrote.

Randone, a sales trainer, and Obrochta, a fitness coach, were axed from The Bachelorette after they failed to impress Becca Kufrin during a debate challenge. Kufrin took issue with Randone calling Lincoln Adim names.

"Both Lincoln and Chris say that they're here for me, but the way that they handled themselves around me and during this debate is stupid drama that would not be happening in front of all of these people," Kufrin said on the show.

Randone and Obrochta join several previously announced contestants from Season 14, including Jordan Kimball and David Ravitz. Bachelor in Paradise Season 5 will also feature Kevin Wendt, Bibiana Julian and other stars.
